GENERAL CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT
STANDARD TIGHTENING TORQUES
Standard tightening torque to be used when not otherwise indicated in the removal and re tting
operations:
- The following tightening torques are given for hexagon head screws without flanges and
cylinder head hexagon socket screws.
- The torques are given for a friction coe cient μ = 0,20 corresponding to dry- tted zinc-plated
fasteners and for torque tools having a ± 20 % class C tightening torque accuracy (equivalent
to pneumatic screwdrivers).

For hexagon screws with anges:
Apply an increased torque of +10%.
(Standard NF E 25-030-1)
bWhere washers are used, the following coe cient is to be applied (FD E 25-502) :
- Smooth tapered washer (CL): +5%
- Spring (or Grower) washer without jaws (W) : +10%
- Conical, internal teeth (CDJ-JZC) : +15%
